I'm really pleased with the photo WordPress website I've built over the last two days. Just have a zillion photos (both Dad's and mine) to go through. I probably will get started and try to upload some small number every day.

Decent day technology wise.
I found a new theme for Jekyll that both has 6 skins, 2 of them dark, and built in search. It's called jekyll-theme-basically-basic.

Back to a serious struggle with journals and note taking. * Where is the Joplin stuff stored and can I access it? * It's on Dropbox and I can export and import.

January 6, 2022 - Jekyll on Arch
Installed Jekyll on Arch and got it working. Some updates needed to my instructions that I have stored in Dokuwiki, so I updated those. Good for me.
Installed mate-polkit and autotiling and copied the respective lines from the Arch i3 config file that came from the cyberpower pc.
Worked on the openbox install on Arch on the Beelink and think it's pretty good so I have the choice of doing either i3 or openbox. Now to make sure the rsync dotfiles script works.
January 4, 2022 - Web Development
I want to put a picture on a page of a web site and I have no idea how to do it easily. I either have to get back to CSS or Bootstrap. My first inclination is Bootstrap. And I suppose there are other front end frameworks that would also work. Maybe I'll investigate.
They're not quite up to date, but I could use John Elder's HTML, Bootstrap, and Javascript courses to do this. OK never mind, I started the Incredible HTML/CSS course on Udemy over again. Part of it is just so I can actually finish a course, but another part is to learn enough HTML and CSS to make sense of either Django or Flask. I might throw in some Bootstrap too, but so far this is where my head is.
January 3, 2022 - Grav, Wordpress
So I felt like I didn't like Grav because a normal user couldn't edit posts - but I'm not nuts about Wordpress either, so I'm going to take a shot at Grav for a few days and see what I think.
Couldn't even get Grav to add a post. No idea why. Gave up. Back to Jekyll for blogging. Aargh!!!
I've said this before but I think I just need to pick something and power through it.
